Anyone got a patch for the 24-hour limit on ACKS? Or a script to invoke acknowledge.sh?
We've GOT to be able to ack alerts and have the ack survive the weekend. (if I can call acknowledge.sh from perl I have a script that can scrape the board and re-ack)
thank you!!
I have never found acks to have a 24 hour limit. Can anyone confirm whether this is definitely true or not?

I was just doing an ack for 1+ days.
It will only get cancelled if the test in question goes green however briefly.
A disable will persist if it is set to expire at a certain time.

I have ack-by-email set up, and can send multi-day/week acks without a problem.

our acks always always always seem to time out what are we doing differently?
we're running xymon 4.3.21 on RHEL6

My suspicion would be that the test briefly exits the bad state, or you have a problem with a clock somewhere. One weird issue that I used to have is if I set acknowledgments too long (we are talking like 999 weeks), IRIX would expire them almost immediately. But that would not happen under your circumstance certainly.

Betsy,
Have you noticed any difference in success depending on how you're specifying the duration? (eg, "1d" vs "24h", etc.?)
There's one "magic value" relating to a full day when we're generating the ack code to begin with, but on walking through the module code I can't see how it would cause an effect like this.
After the acknowledgement, the expiration time of the current one should be displayed on the status page for that test. Can you confirm that the pending date in those cases is what you'd expect it to be?
Sort of grasping at straws here. I'll keep digging in, but so far things seem to be working correctly for me.
Regards, -jc

I've noticed that if I ack for more than a day the ack falls off after 5 minutes sometimes
